about Honda.. I think the first to have VTEC was the Integra.. The NSX was second..
Are all vvt created equal.

My dad's 2009 Toyota Tacoma SR5 is equipped with 2.7L 4 cylinder and 2WD automatic. That already slow combination is forced to turn oversized 235/75/15 tires. So yea, I know the pain... One day I wish to introduce a supercharger to this mini-truckster. Or and LS swap, if I win a lottery. But that little bugger has been with us since 2011 and don't think it will be leaving the family anytime soon.Oh, so I've seen you've driven my Tacoma!
The only two vehicles in my stable that were slower are 2000 Honda CR-V (no VTEC), and 2020 Honda Ruckus (no VTEC either).
I just put a new cam in my Pentastar V6. Can somebody explain how the VVT actually works?
I can see there are some solenoids on the end that presumably shift something inside the cam phasors. The cam phasors have coil springs around them. And there there's this big "oil control bolt" that's all full of holes, so the thing is probably actuated by oil pressure counteracting the mechanical spring pressure, triggered by the solenoids. But I just can't visualize how it actually works.
